Mission Hospital was founded in Mission Viejo in 1971 and has continued to develop new programs and services to meet the ever changing needs of the community. In 1993, Mission Hospital partnered with CHOC Children’s to provide pediatric services and a year later, became a member of the St. Joseph Health network of care. In 2009, Mission Hospital expanded its geographic footprint to include south Orange County’s coast line by acquiring Mission Hospital Laguna Beach.

Campaign Encourages South OC to “Promise to Talk” About Mental Health

When it comes to health, peoples’ minds deserve the same attention
as their bodies. That’s why Mission Hospital has locally implemented
Each Mind Matters, California’s Mental Health Movement, in south
Orange County. The initiative is uniting millions of individuals from
OC and throughout the state to share a vision of improved mental health
and equality for all.

In collaborating with Each Mind Matters, Mission Hospital is taking a unique
approach through public outreach that actively encourages residents to
“Promise to Talk” openly and honestly about mental health.
This message and call to action is being shared through in-neighborhood
visits by outreach teams, community event participation, bus advertising,
door-to-door canvassing, local print and broadcast public service announcements, and more.

Now in its second year, the campaign is reminding people that starting
conversations in a safe way means making a promise to both talk and listen.
Doing so leads to early support and help that can reduce needless suffering
and saves lives. According to the team of experts at Mission Hospital,
a conversation is a great first step to help connect with one another
about our thoughts and feelings. A simple talk or call is a meaningful
start to let someone know they are understood and that someone is truly
listening to them.

A signature program element for Mission Hospital’s local Each Mind
Matters effort is a park bench adorned in lime green, the national color
for mental health awareness. The portable bench and display is a reminder
about the importance of starting a caring conversation about mental health
in a safe, comfortable and familiar space.

The lime green bench appears regularly at local south Orange County events,
civic centers, community facilities, schools, shopping areas, events and
more. It functions as a local icon for mental health and support. Some
of the past locations include visits to the Family Assistance Ministries
(FAM) in San Clemente, Laguna Beach Susi Q Senior Center, Capistrano Valley
High School, Mission Viejo Library and more. To see when the bench is
coming to your neighborhood in 2017, go to PromiseToTalk.org!

Community members are encouraged to make their “Promise to Talk”
today. Individuals may make a promise at PromiseToTalk.org, through @PromiseToTalk
via Facebook or Twitter, or in person at events where Mission Hospital
is participating with Each Mind Matters. To date, several thousand south
Orange County residents have already made their promise!

health services, go to PromiseToTalk.org.
